WhatsApp isn't really social media - it's more like a replacement for text messages to me. I use it a lot. I'm not sure why you'd particularly want to avoid it?

I've used Twtter as a way to find out information but not to tell the world what I'm up to.

I've never used Facebook principally as when it first came out I didn't like the lack of control over who had access to what was posted. I think this may have improved now but I'm not sure.

I've posted a lot on many different forums over the years though but always anonymously like here. The whole 'look at me' aspect to modern social media is just not me at all!

Thanks Brother. I'd love to use WhatsApp but since I'm sticking to old Nokia, it can't happen. I hate smartphones, they f$ck up your eyesight for one thing.
